The posting

We build the backend that powers every AI feature in the company. From the models in production to the AI tools people use day to day, it all runs through systems our team owns and maintains. It's a role with real reach; the work you do here shows up across the whole company.

About You – experience, education, skills, and accomplishments

  • Minimum 6+ years of backend (Python) or full-stack software engineering experience
  • Strong experience with FastAPI
  • Experience with cloud services, preferably AWS
  • Hands on experience of SQL and relational databases such as Postgres, MySQL, or similar
  • Track record in architecting scalable data models and designing complex database schemas.
  • Comfort with ambiguity — you don't need a detailed spec to get moving.

It would be great if you also had . . .

  • Used or built MCP clients & servers, and understand how they operate under the hood
  • Implemented RBAC, authentication, or authorization flows in production systems
  • Experience with API gateway patterns — rate limiting, request routing, service-to-service auth.

What will you be doing in this role?

  • Architect and build fast, clean, and highly available backend systems in Python/FastAPI
  • Make the big architecture call. You'll own design decisions, not just implement someone else's diagram
  • Build and maintain our MCP gateway, the piece of infrastructure that lets AI tools talk to Clarivate's products
  • Deploy, run, and troubleshoot services on AWS
  • Use AI tools as part of your workflow (copilot, agents, LLM-based tooling). We want someone who thinks with AI, not just about it
  • Review code, swap feedback, and help each other write better software
  • Take a vague problem, run with it, and come back with a solution
  • Write tests that catch things, and docs that get read

About the Team

The team is a mix of backend engineers, frontend engineers, and data scientists. We keep processes lean - we focus on what works and iterate when it doesn't, rather than rigidly adhering to a specific methodology.

Hour of Work

45 hours per week, permanent full-time position, IST time zone

At Clarivate, we are committed to providing equal employment opportunities for all qualified persons with respect to hiring, compensation, promotion, training, and other terms, conditions, and privileges of employment. We comply with applicable laws and regulations governing non-discrimination in all locations.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
